Everett's First Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving was extra special this year. A brand new baby has blessed our lives, Nels has a great job that he is enjoying, Margaret passed her boards and we are all healthy. We have so much to be thankful for! We spent the holiday weekend at Nels's parents. Everett was excited to meet his Great-Grandma Dorothy, his cousins Mikkel, Abby, Annie and Ella and Uncle Doug, Aunt Cindy, Uncle Peter and Aunt Kristi and also Great-Great Uncle Marvin. Of course he enjoyed hanging out with Grandma Patti and Grandpa Craig. We enjoyed a little break as everyone was really excited to change Everett's diapers, hold him and rock him to sleep. It was nice to have the help! The day after Thanksgiving, we opted out of the Black Friday shopping crowds for a family portrait. It was amazing to see the four generations all together. We were also lucky enough to have a quick visit with the Johnson's - Scott, Holly, Mackenzie and Riley. All in all, it was a lovely Thanksgiving holiday and we are definitely excited about the next get together.
